7	A sub-category of TertiarySexualCharacteristics and LongHairIsFeminine, this is when female anthropomorphic animals have human-like heads of hair while their male counterparts do not. So while males are free to have what looks like a "bald" head (or at most, [[TuftOfHeadFur tufts of fur on their head indicating hair]]), females must have a more "obvious" indicator of their gender (the other option would be hiding the perceived "baldness" with hair accessories à la Minnie Mouse). Lions are probably the most common exception to this, since the male's mane is so universally known that switching it around would just look weird (although females with manes and males without them [[AluminiumChristmasTrees actually can exist]]).
8
9	Non-mammal examples overlap with NonMammalianHair.
10
11	Is the little sister trope to NonMammalMammaries and a SubTrope of HumanoidFemaleAnimal and AnimalGenderBender. See AnimalFacialHair and FurryBaldness for male animal hair tropes. Compare EarsAsHair, in which a character's long ears are shaped in a way to resemble long hair.

13	!!Examples:

15
16	[[folder:Advertising]]
17	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7oSgAcT_g2w The Bombshell Bunny]], the female foil to the Advertising/EnergizerBunny, is depicted with a head of light brown hair, whereas the Energizer Bunny just has fur on his head.
18	[[/folder]]
19
20	[[folder:Anime and Manga]]
21	* In ''Anime/BNABrandNewAnimal'' male [[BeastMan Beastmen]] lose most of their cranial hair when they shift to beast form, while most Beastwomen keep theirs. Oddly main character Michiru's hair turns the same color palette as her tail, blue with black tips.
22	* Topaz (who's a Yorkshire Terrier) from ''Toys/{{Jewelpet}}'' has flowing light brown hair that's as long as she is tall. Pretty bizarre as no other Jewelpets, female or male, have such hair/fur.
23	[[/folder]]
24
25	[[folder:Comic Books]]
26	* ''ComicBook/AlbedoErmaFelnaEDF'': The Felna family, who are cats, has the rare genetic trait of the female members having thick human like head hair. Averted by most everyone else.
27	* ''ComicBook/{{Blacksad}}'': Females have human hair, males don't. Males do, however, occasionally have fur tufts that ''look'' like hair. The only aversion so far is Chad in ''Amarillo''.
28	* ''ComicBook/{{Katmandu}}'': Subverted where ''everyone'', males and females alike, have human hair, through theirs normally match at times with the color of their furs.
29	* ''ComicBook/OmegaMen'': The natives of Karna are essentially cat people, though the males look more alien and have fur about the same length everywhere and the females are more human in appearance and have long hair atop their heads and such short fur everywhere else that some artists draw them as not having fur at all.
30	* ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'':
31	** ''ComicBook/SonicTheHedgehogArchieComics'' plays this straight with many of its CanonForeigner female characters (and often males too). In comparison, [=SegaSonic=] canon characters tend to avert this. Bunnie is one example where she originally averted this trope and had a TuftOfHeadFur but was later given long hair.
32	** ''ComicBook/SonicTheComic'' averts this with much of the cast, but it also plays this trope straight:
33	*** Morain is a fox kit like Tails but has longer bangs and a ponytail.
34	*** Tekno combines this with NonMammalianHair. She is a canary with short hair.
35	* ''[[ComicBook/SpiderHam Peter Porker: The Spectacular Spider-Ham]]'': The female characters in Creator/MarvelComics' AnimalSuperhero series, such as Mary-Jane Waterbuffalo and the Scarlet Pooch, all have long hair, in a different shade to their fur. Peter himself has the brown hair of his [[ComicBook/SpiderMan human counterpart]], but is otherwise furless, being a pig. And Nick Furry, Agent of S.H.E.E.P., somehow has ''stubble'' growing over his fur.
36	* ''ComicBook/UsagiYojimbo'': All female characters have hair; most civilian male characters are [[CharlieBrownBaldness "bald"]]; samurai have topknots of black hair (male rabbits like Usagi use their EarsAsHair).
37	[[/folder]]
38
39	[[folder:Fan Works]]
40	* Twisted-Wind's fan art of WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse, WesternAnimation/MinnieMouse, WesternAnimation/OswaldTheLuckyRabbit and Ortensia often have the females with hair. ''Webcomic/CountMickeyDragul'' features Minnie with long hair.
41	* Taken to extremes in two ''Warriors'' [[MultiAnimatorProject MAPs]] set to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCadlMfO-kU "Mama" by My Chemical Romance]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6eYuO2rwjQ "Everybody's Fool" by Evanescence]]. Hollyleaf (a non-anthropomorphic cat) is given striped black-and-white scene hair with red highlights. The [=MAPs=] are styled after 2000s fan-art.
42	* ''Webcomic/SonicRift'':
43	** After growing out her quills. Amy's quills resemble hair even more than before.
44	** Rouge has a ponytail.
45	* ''Webcomic/ShadamyComic'':
46	** Amy's quills are grown so long that they can be styled like hair.
47	** Rouge has grown out her head fur so that it's long enough to act as hair.
48	[[/folder]]
49
50	[[folder:Film -- Animation]]
51	* Occurs with the female characters in ''WesternAnimation/AnAmericanTail'', though Tony Toponi is one male inversion. Tanya Mousekewitz plays it straight in ''Fievel Goes West'' but averts it in the other movies.
52	* Somewhat {{inverted\|trope}} with the mice in ''WesternAnimation/TheGreatMouseDetective''. For example, Olivia Flaversham doesn't have human-like head hair, but her father, Hiram Flaversham, has head hair ([[FurryBaldness albeit balding, leaving just fur on the crown]]) and a moustasche. Miss Kitty Mouse lacks human-like head hair too. The majority of the mice (whether male or female) however, don't have human-like head hair, though Dr. Dawson does have a moustasche.
53	* Inverted in ''WesternAnimation/{{The Jungle Book\|1967}}'' where Hathi Jr, a male baby elephant has human hair on his head. Played straight with his mother Winifred in the show ''WesternAnimation/JungleCubs'' where she is shown as a calf as with her eventual husband Colonel Hathi, however.
54	* Both of the squirrels from ''Animation/TheReturnOfHanuman'' have short white hair.
55	* Averted in ''WesternAnimation/RobinHood1973''. Maid Marian achieves some flowing-hair effect by wearing a thin veil over a hat that fits neatly over her ears.
56	* Beans from ''WesternAnimation/{{Rango}}''.
57	* In a non-furry example, Ogre Fiona and other female ogres from the ''Franchise/{{Shrek}}'' movies have hair on their head, but the male ogres (like Shrek) are bald with or without a few stands.
58	* Kate in ''WesternAnimation/AlphaAndOmega''. She even [[HairFlip flips]] it.
59	* ''WesternAnimation/{{The Lion King\|1994}}'' takes advantage of real hyenas' neck manes to make it more evident that Shenzi is female. While [[http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100429002846/lionking/images/e/ea/Hyenas.jpg the three of them have manes]], Shenzi's is the only one that does not [[FurryBaldness thin]] when reaching the head but becomes longer and falls over its eyes (it also serves as a reference to voice-actress Creator/WhoopiGoldberg's trademark dreadlocks). It's on the other hand inverted with the lions, obviously.
60	* Averted in ''WesternAnimation/FlushedAway''. Rita, a female mouse, has red hair on her head. Roddy, a male mouse, also has a full head of brown hair on his head. And so does every other mammal character in the movie, except for those who are meant to be... er... '[[FurryBaldness bald]]', like Whitey the lab rat.
61	* Rare non-animal example: ''Franchise/{{Cars}}'' actually both inverts this, averts this, and plays this straight, where many of the vehicles in the film lack any "hair", except for Luigi and his Uncle Topolino, who have vinyl toupees; [[TheDragon Professor Z]] who has damaged wiring on his roof resembling a bald head; [[WesternAnimation/PixarShorts Rasta]][[DreadlockRasta carian]], who has black wiring on his roof resembling dreadlocks; and Signora Bernoulli, who has black wiring hiding under her scarf.
62	* In ''WesternAnimation/OnceUponAForest'' Abigail has hair, but so does just about every mouse character, even males. The rest of the main characters don't have it.
63	* A variation in ''WesternAnimation/{{Nine}}''. Number 7 has a feather sticking out of her helmet that is meant to resemble a ponytail.
64	* ''Animation/LeafieAHenIntoTheWild'' [[GenderInvertedTrope inverts this trope]]: The two main male duck characters and most if not all of the background male ducks have "hair" (really feathers), but most if not all of the female characters lack these.
65	* ''Literature/RudolphTheRedNosedReindeer'':
66	** Inverted in ''WesternAnimation/RudolphTheRedNosedReindeer1998''. Rudolph and Arrow have blond-looking fur on their heads while Zoey does not. In fact some of the male and female reindeer are depicted with blonde hair, notably a group of young reindeer singing carols with the Elves.
67	** The [[WesternAnimation/RudolphTheRedNosedReindeer 1964 special]] inverts this with Fireball, who is a buck who has fur on his head.
68	** Rudolph is also depicted with blonde hair in the 1981 Literature/GoldenBook version of "Rudolph's Shines Again" (later known as "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer Shines Again" from 1954).
69	* PlayedWith in ''WesternAnimation/EscapeFromPlanetEarth''--the female aliens from Baab have some sort of flap on their head which resembles hair, while the males are bald. The "hair" also tends to be odd colors. See [[http://www.fortressofsolitude.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/escape-from-planet-earth-movie-review.jpg here]] to compare [[ActionMom Kira]] to her husband and son.
70	* PlayedWith in ''WesternAnimation/Planet51''. Most of the inhabitants of Planet 51 have vestigial tentacles growing out the tops of their heads that visually function as hair.
71	* ''WesternAnimation/TheSecretOfNIMH'': Mrs. Brisby has tufts of fur that sort of look like a short, boyish haircut, while her oldest daughter has a tuft of fur as bangs and a large pink bow on top of her head. Nicodemus has floor-length white hair and an equally long mustache. The sequel has Mrs. Brisby's head fur graying at the tips, but all her children, along with Jenny and most of the Thorn Valley mice (not the rats) have heads of hair.
72	* In ''WesternAnimation/LadyAndTheTramp'' Lady's ears are designed so they look like loose pigtails. Peg's ears are also drawn to be very long and bushy, along with a mane on top of her head to give the impression of long shaggy hair. The male dogs' ears in the film are drawn much shorter. Lady herself is a rare justified case, because she's a purebred Cocker Spaniel, and purebreds...pretty much just look like that.
73	* ''WesternAnimation/OliverAndCompany'' has this for both of the main female dogs, although this is somewhat fitting due to their breeds. Rita, who's either an Afgan Hound or a Saluki, has long fur running down her head and ears. Likewise, Georgette is a poodle, whose fur has been cut in such a way that her ears resemble pigtails. This "ears as hair" trend is also seen on several other blatantly female dogs who briefly appear throughout the film. Tito, however, is a male example, being a chihuahua who for some reason has a tuft of orange hair on his head.
74	* Dixie in ''WesternAnimation/TheFoxAndTheHound2''. Her design sticks out like a sore thumb, as none of the other animals in the film or even in the first movie have hair like that.
75	[[/folder]]
76
77	[[folder:Literature]]
78	* In ''The 7 Habits of Happy Kids'', a child spinoff of ''The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People'', some female characters, such as Sophie Squirrel, have human-like hair.
79	* Snork Maiden from ''Literature/TheMoomins''. Though averted with Moominmama who is shown as female by her handbag accessory. This is likely to establish that Snork Maiden isn't related to the family.
80	* The ''Literature/GeronimoStilton'' is an overall very straight example, with most of the major female charters (Petunia Pretty Paws, Bugsy Wugsy/Pandora, Creepella Von Cacklefur, The Shadow, and the Thea Sisters) having this in effect, while major male characters like Geronimo himself, Benjamin and Trap tend to be bald. Thea herself is a rare aversion having no mane. Villain Sally Ratmousen was another exception in the original books, but was given a full mane of red hair in the AnimatedAdaptation.
81	[[/folder]]
82
83	[[folder:Music]]
84	* "The Hippopotomus Song", in which two courting hippos sing the praises of mud, refers to the female "combing her hair".
85	[[/folder]]
86
87	[[folder:Puppet Shows]]
88	* ''Series/TheMuppetShow'':
89	** The main feature distinguishing Fozzie Bear and his mother is Ma Bear's grey curls.
90	** There is of course the long blonde hair of Miss Piggy.
91	* ''Series/SesameStreet''
92	** Stretching the definition of "animal" slightly, female monsters are more likely to have head-hair over their fur than male ones (although this isn't unknown, either). The most prominent examples are Zoe (who has bunches the same colour as her fur) and Rosita (who has a slight multicoloured mop). Like Ma Bear, above, the female relatives of male monsters often have an UncannyFamilyResemblance apart from the addition of hair.
93	** In the UK spin-off ''Series/TheFurchesterHotel'', Phoebe has a ponytail a slightly darker shade of purple than her fur and Funella has yellow fur and a bright red topknot (and also a sort of yoke or boa the same colour).
94	** Sesame Street is also home to Meryl Sheep, who has a Creator/MerylStreep hairstyle entirely distinct from her wool.
95	* ''Series/TheWubbulousWorldOfDrSeuss'': Pam-I-Am, Sam-I-Am's female counterpart, has pink hair that matches the color of her body.
96	[[/folder]]
97
98	[[folder:Video Games]]
99	* ''VideoGame/CrashBandicoot'': Tawna and Coco Bandicoot have blonde hair.
100	* Berri in ''VideoGame/ConkersBadFurDay''
101	* In the flashback of ''VideoGame/DustyRevenge'', Dusty's fiancée Daisy has short, humanoid hair. It's worth noting no other female animal character, like Gladdius the feline FortuneTeller, the feline bandits and Kitsune the Fox (from the prequel ''VideoGame/DustyRagingFist''), have this feature.
102	* Gurdy the moogle from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXII'', though the rest of her brothers (except for Horne) has this too. Note that the rest of the moogles in the game are bald.
103	* ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'':
104	** Inverted in the ''Super Mario Bros'' series games where most of the male Koopalings, as well as [[BigBad Bowser]] and [[OverlordJr Bowser Jr.]] have hair, while Wendy O. Koopa, the only female Koopaling, does not. Roy is the only male koopaling completely without hair while Morton has UnusualEyebrows and [[CharlieBrownBaldness only 3 strands of hair on top of his head]].
105	** Played straight in ''VideoGame/PaperMario'', where most Koopas don't have hair, except for the only female Koopas, Koopie Koo and Kammy Koopa.
106	** A non-furry example happens with the anthropomorphic mushrooms known as "Toads". Female Toads have pigtails built into their caps while males do not, though some males like Toadsworth can be distinguished by facial hair.
107	* In ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry'', all of the female Kongs (Dixie Kong, Candy Kong, Tiny Kong, and Wrinkly Kong) all have human-like hair on their heads; indeed, Dixie and Tiny even glide and attack with PrehensileHair. Swanky Kong sort of does as well, but he'd be the only male Kong with hair. Cranky Kong has a long white beard and male-pattern baldness over his brown fur.
108	* Celine the rat in the ''WesternAnimation/{{Ratatouille}}'' video game and ''Kinect Rush: A Disney-Pixar Adventure'' has head fur that has a semblance to short, humanlike head hair, including bangs, which the male rats don't have.
109	* ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'':
110	** Most of the females avert this. For example, Amy (a hedgehog) styles her quills into a bob while Rouge (a bat) doesn't even have fluff on her head.
111	** Blaze the Cat has purple hair in a ponytail.
112	** Cream's mother Vanilla is distinguished from her by having a bit of hair.
113	** Honey the Cat of ''VideoGame/SonicTheFighters'' is just Honey from ''VideoGame/FightingVipers'' but as a FunnyAnimal cat. She stands out against the canon ''Sonic'' characters by having yellow fur against a black mop of hair.
114	* Inverted in ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'' with the goatlike Toriel and Asgore. Toriel is female and lacks this sort of characteristic, while the male Asgore has a blonde mane and beard. Played straight with some of the other mammalian monsters, such as Catty, the library patrons who work at the newspaper... and of course Temmie.
115	* This is often the case in ''VideoGame/SlyCooper'' with Sly and Bentley's love interests Carmelita and Penelope having hair while they have none.
116	* In ''Franchise/StarFox'', Krystal is an example of this with blue hair. Unusually, her design for ''VideoGame/DinosaurPlanet'' (which was retooled into ''VideoGame/StarFoxAdventures'') shows she didn't have any hair.
117	* ''Franchise/SpyroTheDragon'':
118	** Sheila's redesign in ''VideoGame/SpyroReignitedTrilogy'' gives her red pigtails.
119	** Bianca has two long strands of blonde hair that border on being a TuftOfHeadFur.
120	[[/folder]]
121
122	[[folder:Web Animation]]
123	* Flaky, the porcupine from ''WebAnimation/HappyTreeFriends'', has her quills treated as long hair. They even react to a hair growth tonic in ''"Easy Comb, Easy Go"'', [[NeverTrustAHairTonic leading to catastrophic events.]] They're also [[MeaningfulName full of dandruff.]]
124	* In ''WebAnimation/{{Wings}}'', several of the wolfiin have hair. The protagonist Dawn has long blue hair.
125	* WebAnimation/WolfSongTheMovie has it where most of the females have noticeable locks of hair atop them, of course there are a few exceptions and protagonist Kara has hers include a blue lock of hair despite the rest of her fur being yellow, but she started off as an exception before gaining wolf form and [[spoiler: becomes an exception at the end of the final battle as the horn snapping off her pure of heart form translated to removing her locks, somehow causing minor bleeding from this, having her fur be of a more natural form.]]
126	[[/folder]]
127
128	[[folder:Webcomics]]
129	* Most female characters on ''WebComic/SabrinaOnline''. The eponymous skunk has short white hair, her kid sister Tabitha has white pigtails, Amy has long blonde hair, Zig Zag has long silver hair, etc. Sabrina's boyfriend R.C. also has hair.
130	* Played straight throughout ''Webcomic/KevinAndKell'', except for lions: Males have the large mane; females have no additional cranial hair.
131	* Florence Ambrose, an [[UpliftedAnimal genetically altered red wolf]] in ''Webcomic/{{Freefall}}'', has human-style hair for visual gender identification purposes. [[WordOfGod Mark Stanley]] mentioned in the FourthWallMailSlot [[http://www.talkaboutcomics.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=459383#459383 thread]] that had he started drawing her today, he wouldn't have included the hair to indicate her gender.
132	* The female foxes in ''Webcomic/FauxPas'' have longer fur on the back of their heads to suggest hair.
133	* In ''Webcomic/{{Lackadaisy}}'', only the female characters have human-like styled hair, with the male ones looking more realistically cat-like with no hair in addition to their regular fur.
134	** In one of the bonus comics, this fact is called attention to. The author then decides to allow a glimpse into a world [[http://www.lackadaisycats.com/exhibit.php?exhibitid=376 where the boys have hair]].
135	* ''Carry On'' [[SubvertedTrope subverts]] it: The women actually wear wigs.
136	** In later strips, the author changed her position and things have been retconned such that at least the hyena main characters now actually have real long hair.
137	* It'd be easier to talk about characters on ''Webcomic/LastRes0rt'' who DON'T have hair...
138	* Averted in ''Webcomic/TheCyantianChronicles'', both genders have hair. Male wolves in particular tend to wear it long.
139	* In ''Webcomic/TheWhiteboard'', most of the female {{funny animal}}s are given human style hair on their head, while with the exception of Jake none of the males have it. When [[GenderBender Roger was gender-bent]] [[http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autobutton06.html after getting zapped due to pressing]] [[SchmuckBait a button labeled "do not press"]], his female version instantly grew human style hair.
140	* Nin Wah in ''Webcomic/CommanderKitty'' is the [[http://www.commanderkitty.com/2009/09/06/farewell-to-arms/ only girl among the main cast to sport one]], with [[http://www.commanderkitty.com/2010/09/12/table-for-blue/ Zenith]] settling for a pair of tiny curls and [[http://www.commanderkitty.com/2013/01/27/graceful-exits-2/ Freeda]] averting it completely.
141	* The female furries in ''Webcomic/StubbleTrouble'' (those who aren't shaved, anyway) have human-like hair in addition to their fur.
142	* Averted by ''Webcomic/FeliciaSorceressOfKatara'', but played straight by a number of other female characters, largely [[CatFolk Katarans]], canids like Felicia tend to have normal fur (but are no less attractive).
143	* ''Webcomic/DNATheWebcomic'': Several of the Xs, including both males and females, have much longer hair on their heads than the rest of their body, and in some cases it is also a different color.
144	* Played straight with Chiro and Queen Felicia in ''Webcomic/TheFuzzyPrincess'', who both have hair. Averted with Princess Kat, however.
145	* Every female furry character in ''Webcomic/SequentialArt'' have human hair styles. Because all the female furries have [[HumanoidFemaleAnimal curvaceous female humanoid bodies]], their hair isn't needed to identify their gender, but it does help to tell Scarlet apart from her sisters, who would all look identical without it. In a subversion, of the four male furries to be featured (not including Pip), 3 of them also have human hair styles.
146	* Though it's not quite hair, Indigo from ''Webcomic/{{PRISMWING}}'' has a prominent setae-do.
147	[[/folder]]
148
149	[[folder:Web Original]]
150	* The Matriarch Harmsters from ''Blog/HamstersParadise'' have pronounced BizarreSexualDimorphism where males are smaller, while females are bigger, more aggressive, and have long shaggy manes often styled into dreads.
151	[[/folder]]
152
153	[[folder:Western Animation]]
154	* [[Franchise/AlvinAndTheChipmunks The Chipettes]] in the ''WesternAnimation/AlvinAndTheChipmunks'' cartoons and in the [[Film/AlvinAndTheChipmunks live action movies]] have human-like head hair, whereas Alvin and his brothers only have tufts of fur on their heads.
155	* Generally averted along with most TertiarySexualCharacteristics in ''WesternAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball'', but:
156	** A flashback to Nicole's prom in "The Ape" [[IWasQuiteAFashionVictim has her sporting]] EightiesHair even though she normally has no visible hair apart from her fur. "The Choices" also shows her in her late teens with a chin length hairstyle.
157	** In "The Job", one of the many [[RealityIsOutToLunch sudden shifts to reality]] has several characters briefly change gender. The girl versions of Gumball (cat) and Darwin ([[NonMammalianHair goldfish]]) [[RuleOfFunny inexplicably have long human-like hair.]]
158	** In "The Fight", the anime-esque ArtShift makes Nicole a CatGirl with a bobbed hairstyle.
159	* Lana from ''WesternAnimation/AnimalCrackers'' is an unusual case where a lioness is depicted with this.
160	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'':
161	** Inverted with Rita and Runt. Runt has human-like head hair, but Rita only has tufts of fur. Interestingly, Runt is a [[TalkingAnimal talking, but otherwise normal, quadrupedal]] dog and Rita is a TalkingAnimal[=/=]CivilizedAnimal who is [[FourLegsGoodTwoLegsBetter both bipedal and quadrupedal]] cat [[AnthropomorphicZigZag who is portrayed as a]] FunnyAnimal in a few appearances.
162	** Played straight with Minerva Mink, who has human-like head hair.
163	* Largely averted in ''WesternAnimation/AroundTheWorldWithWillyFog''. Fog and the bank-robber from the penultimate episode, being male lions, have manes, but most of the characters, regardless of gender, do not have human-like head hair when they shouldn't.
164	* All the female characters in ''WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}}'' except Fern (who has [[EarsAsHair dog ears for hair]]), while most but not all of the male characters are "bald" (other than the fur). Francine's father is a strange combination - he has fur and hair, but he's got Male Pattern Baldness leaving just fur on the crown of his head surrounded by hair. (He's a monkey, by the way.)
165	* Inverted in ''WesternAnimation/TheBackyardigans''. Tyrone the moose, who is male, is the only character with hair. His friend Tasha the female hippo looks very much like him, except for the lack of hair, antlers, and different ears.
166	%%* The female characters in ''WesternAnimation/CampLazlo''.
167	* [[WrenchWench Gadget Hackwrench]] from ''WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'' has long, flowing head hair while [[WesternAnimation/ChipAndDale Chip, Dale]] and Monterey Jack are either bald or only have tufts. Tammy the squirrel also has styleable head hair, but Foxglove averts this by only having tufts of fur.
168	* WesternAnimation/DaisyDuck is occasionally a borderline example, depending on the show:
169	** Her "classic" design averts this trope, although she does have long tufts of feathers on the back of her head. This makes for hilarity in ''Disney Party'', a game based on ''Mario Party'', where Daisy is rendered in classical style... with her sound when being damaged being "My Hair!"
170	** ''WesternAnimation/QuackPack'' exaggerates her tufts so that they look like a pixie cut, but they still look like "styled" feathers.
171	** ''WesternAnimation/HouseOfMouse'' Daisy is a pretty straight example, as she has a very long ponytail, though at least it's white like her feathers.
172	** ''WesternAnimation/MickeyMouseClubhouse'' marks the return of the ponytail but it's much shorter and seems a little more like feathers.
173	** ''WesternAnimation/MickeyDonaldGoofyTheThreeMusketeers'' just straight up gives her ''long blonde hair''.
174	* Played with in ''WesternAnimation/DarkwingDuck'': Whilst Morgana, Gosalyn and the other female characters have hair, Drake/Darkwing, Honker and most other males don't. Inverted by Launchpad and Tank, who have hair.
175	* In ''WesternAnimation/DinosaurTrain'', the male ''Troodon''s only have a few feathers on their heads, but the females' resemble human hairstyles. For example, the Conductor's mother's looks like curly hair, while Tricia's resembles a short bob.
176	* Many of the female characters in ''WesternAnimation/DogtanianAndTheThreeMuskehounds'', including Dogtanian's love interest, Juliette, have human-like hair.
177	* Some female characters in ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales1987'', like Mrs. Beakly and Magica De Spell, had hair.
178	** It's more common in [[WesternAnimation/DuckTales2017 the remake]], with Webby and most other female ducks having hair. (Usually white, like their feathers.)
179	* Played with in ''WesternAnimation/TheDreamstone'', most of the Noops, male or female, have visible hair, but Amberley's mane is definitely more evident than for male characters like Rufus. All the Wuts have manes, though the female Wildit is made divergent for having a different style.
180	* The titular protagonist of ''WesternAnimation/ElinorWondersWhy'' and a few other female characters have distinctive manes, though it doesn't apply to all of them.
181	* A non-mammalian example in ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'': Most male robots' heads only have antennae or other accessories (except for iZac, who has an afro and mustache), while females have different-colored metal on their heads, looking like either feminine hairdos, like Angleline's, human hair wigs like the Crushinator's, or fin-like mohawks like Monique's. The few exceptions to that rule are when female robots look way too abstract to resemble humans at all, for the sake of a joke.
182	* Most male characters in ''WesternAnimation/HarveyBeaks'' have little to no demarcation between head hair and bodily fur. Most female characters (besides [[GonkyFemme Princess]]) have hair that is clearly separate and often a different color than the rest of their body. Foo and Fee, [[CartoonCreature whatever they are]], may be the most extreme contrast: Foo has a tuft of fur on each cheek and what appears to be either swirled IdiotHair or some kind of antenna. Fee has an enormous canopy of bright purple hair against brown fur.
183	* Cleo from ''WesternAnimation/HeathcliffAndTheCatillacCats'' had long blonde human hair. The only other cats to have hair on their heads were Wordsworth, who had a lock of longer hair on his forehead, and Hector.
184	* Eugly the rabbit from ''WesternAnimation/{{Kaeloo}}'' has orange hair tied up in pigtails, while the rest of her body is pink. In season 5, Eugly's sister Pretty (who used to have EarsAsHair) also gains hair as part of an ExpositoryHairstyleChange.
185	* Played straight with Minka, Pepper, and Zoe from ''WesternAnimation/LittlestPetShop2012''. {{Averted\|Trope}} with Penny, who doesn't even have a tuft, and Buttercream (she has a bow though). Vinnie, a male [[NonMammalianHair gecko]] has hair as well.
186	* ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'':
187	** Petunia Pig has a full head of hair, but Porky Pig doesn't.
188	** Lola Bunny in ''Film/SpaceJam'' has a larger, blonde tuft of hair on her head, but has her ears tied up in a ponytail as a substitute for long hair. WesternAnimation/BugsBunny only has smaller tufts.
189	** Lola's long-running, [[Creator/GoldKeyComics print-only]] predecessor, Honey Bunny, averted the trope. She did sometimes arrange her ears to resemble a hairstyle, though.
190	** Similarly, Melissa Duck has a full head of hair, but WesternAnimation/DaffyDuck doesn't.
191	** Subverted in ''WesternAnimation/TheLooneyTunesShow''. Tina Russo also has a full head of hair, but an episode shows that even her father (male) has hairs.
192	* ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'': Bella, Lucy's direct rabbit counterpart from "White Hare," does not have a full mane, but still has Lucy's [[EyesOutOfSight eye-covering]] front hair. This is unusual for Bella, as every other animal character from the episode (of which a whole majority are females) either has no representation of hair, a tuft of head fur, or uses their EarsAsHair.
193	* Exaggerated in ''WesternAnimation/TheMysteriesOfAlfredHedgehog'', every anthropomorphic animal, including males, have human-like hair.
194	* Mousey Galore from ''WesternAnimation/PinkyAndTheBrain'' is a straight example, but Billie subverts this by having a large, stylish cowlick of fur.
195	* In the TV series of Brian Jacques' ''Literature/{{Redwall}}'' novels, Rose in the Martin the Warrior arc has a long ponytail, despite human-like hair being avoided or only mildly used in earlier seasons.
196	* Although not a furry, Smurfette from ''WesternAnimation/TheSmurfs1981'' embodies the spirit of this trope: Males of a species can be bald but females must have plenty of head hair.
197	* Played straight and averted in ''WesternAnimation/SonicTheHedgehogSatAM'', Sally and Lupe have a mane of hair, while Bunnie only has a tuft of fur on her forehead. Most male characters have just fur, though Antoine has a blond cut and some elderly characters such as Uncle Chuck and King Acorn have mustaches.
198	* Rebecca in ''WesternAnimation/TaleSpin'', and her daughter Molly.
199	* ''WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures'':
200	** Shirley The Loon and Fifi La Fume have a full head of hair, but Buster Bunny, Plucky Duck, Furrball, Hamton J. Pig, and other male Tiny Toons don't.
201	** Averted with Babs Bunny, who only has a few tufts of fur on her head. In a few cases, [[EarsAsHair she styles her ears as though it was hair]].
202	* Rare plant example: Many of the female characters from ''WesternAnimation/VeggieTales'', with the sole exception being Mrs. Asparagus.
203	* Sophia Tutu in ''WesternAnimation/TheRaccoons'' is an aardvark and has long blue curly hair whilst other aardvarks like Cedric and Cyril only have their ears and a couple of tufts. Most female aardvarks on the show have hair but no ears.
204	** Lisa Raccoon subverts this as she has a ponytail to match her fur color.
205	** Even Lady Baden-Baden subverts the trope by having buns to match her feathers.
206	* Played in spirit in ''WesternAnimation/ShaunTheSheep'': a female sheep and Shaun's LoveInterest have long blonde wool around her head, whilst all other sheep have short white wool.
